Kusaba kwa Dau̱di̱.
1 Ai̱ Mukama, weegwa kusaba kwange kwa mananu,
otege ipokopo weetegeerye kukunga kwange, kutalimwo b̯u̱gobya.
2 Oncweremwona,
aleke mei̱so gaamu gaawone mananu!
3 Mutima gwange ogwegi̱ri̱, nab̯u̱wei̱zanga i̱jolo,
okandenga, tolinzagya na nsobi̱,
nyeeheeri̱yo b̯utabaza b̯u̱gobya.
4 Nka ngesu za bantu kuzibba, ku̱si̱gi̱ki̱ra ha bigambu byamu,
tinkanyaganga muntu wondi.
5 Biro byenseenya mpondera biragiro byamu,
tinkahugukanga.
6 Nkunga weewe, ai̱ Ruhanga, hab̯wakubba weewe onzi̱ramwo,
tega ipokopo weegwe bigambu byange.
7 Ndagiira mahanu ga mbabazi̱ zaamu,
we ajuna bei̱ru̱ka hali we kwejuna banyanzigwa baab̯u.
8 Ondindenge nka mboni̱ gya li̱i̱so lyamu,
ombumbenge mu ki̱tu̱ntu̱lu̱ kya bimpaha byo,
9 onjune babiibi bandu̱mba,
hali banyanzigwa bangoti̱ri̱ ku̱nzi̱ta.
10 Tibagira kisa mu mitima myab̯u,
babaza bigambu bya kwehemba.
11 Baronzi̱ri̱ lugere lwange, hataati̱ bangoti̱ri̱,
mei̱so gaab̯u gali ha kunguma hansi.
12 Akwisana ntali gikuraka b̯u̱raki̱ kutaagura,
nka mwana gwa ntali gu̱laali̱ri̱i̱ri̱ mu kisaka.
13 Ai̱ Mukama, byoka! Omu̱ru̱mbe, omukwate!
Oncungure na mpirima gyamu hali mubiibi,
14 ai̱ Mukama, onjune na ngalu gyamu hali babiibi,
hali babiibi ba mu nsi bateekerereza mu b̯womi b̯wa gigi nsi.
Nda zaab̯u zaahukanga na mukyenu gu̱bababi̱ki̱i̱ri̱,
baana baab̯u baazi̱mbanga nda,
kifubiro ki̱kyo baakilekeranga beezukulu baab̯u.
15 Bei̱tu̱ gya, atali na musangu mu mei̱so gaamu, ndikuwonaho,
b̯u̱ndi̱kasi̱si̱mu̱ka nkakuwonaho ndisemererwa.
